[Tutorial] How to use a bridge or proxify your Tor connection

Before starting this tutorial, heres two differences: using bridges is to hide your connection to Tor from ISPs.

Using a proxy would be to completely anonymize your connection to Tor with proxychains for example.

Step 1: Edit torrc file

• sudo nano /etc/tor/torrc

Step 2: Add theses lines

• Socks5ProxyUsername username
• Socks5ProxyPassword password

For a TCP proxy
